Rolls-Royce signs collaboration deal with Chinese state vendor

Rolls-Royce has signed a collaboration agreement with Chinese state nuclear reactor vendor SNPTC focused on winning more business in civil nuclear power projects in the UK and overseas.

The two companies signed a memorandum of understanding to explore possible collaboration in such areas as engineering support, provision of components and systems, supply chain management and instrumentation and control technology.

Jason Smith, President of Rolls-Royce's Nuclear division, said: "China represents one of the world's largest civil nuclear markets in which Rolls-Royce has been supplying safety-critical technology and solutions for 20 years.

"I am proud that we have built a partnership with SNPTC based on mutual trust. I look forward to exploring how we can broaden our work together in our domestic and international markets."

Rolls-Royce's nuclear division supplies safety-critical instrumentation and control technology to more than 70% of nuclear reactors in operation or under construction in China and emergency diesel generators to almost 40%.

The division's other expertise includes providing advice to governments and operators, supply chain management and manufacturing and technical engineering support.
